great clutch, but the shifter feels like absolute sh*t, cheap, caca,
etc...it feels like I am forcing it into gear and it goes with all the
smoothness of operating a forklift lever.

the guage on my coolent temp usually sits at about  the quater mark.  today i
reacently noticed that it was slowly moving  twardes the halfway mark, exept
when i was driving it would go back down to the quater mark.  when i parked
it was sitting at the halfay again and sometimes ...

Hi all, I just leased an 07 ION 3 (wife has an 06) and was wondering at what
mileage the 1st oil/filter change should be?  I plan on using Mobile 1 like
the wife's.

I have a 95 SL1 and one of the rear doors cannot
be opened from the inside, but works fine opening
the outside handle/lock.  Anyone familiar with

slight feathering vibration in the steering wheel, ...

For several months my 97 SL1 has gotten really bad MPG compared to what it
